I'd prefer to avoid mode-switching properties when possible, since
they cascade very poorly. (In general, the decision of what should
be a separate property vs. a value for an existing property ought to
be based significantly on whether they make sense to specify and
cascade separately.)
Collapsing of side margins, and collapsing of margins of floats with
things outside them seem unnecessarily complicated. Either would
require a precise definition of when margins are adjacent.
